why didnt you talk to her first and say something like "are you serious?" or "what's wrong?"

You're all so ignorant.

Just recently someone posted on their facebook "I want to kill myself" not a single person called the cops, the next day she was found dead.

Get real, and stop living in your fucking bubbles of "No cops, don't worry"

I tried to kill myself TWICE, and it's because someone stepped in I wasn't able to do it. Granted, I didn't post I was going to online, I still needed help, and that's what she needs.

A big :facepalm: to all of you.




If your not going to except the answer "yeah it was stupid, i wouldnt of called the cops" Why did you make this thread? It should be called "i called the cops on my potentially suicidal sister... i dun give a fuck if you disagree"

if i was suicidal and someone called the police on me, then i would probably want to kill myself even more.

I think it would have shown her that you care, if you called her or went over there yourself.  Calling the cops, kinda says that you aren't willing to check in on her yourself.  Just IMO.

Well, I tried talking to her and she said she wasn't okay, and she wasn't going to be fine.

You're right I should have named this thread.. "My cousin want's to comit suicide, I called the cops, fuck the haters"

I guess I wanted opinions and wanted them to be swayed in my direction.

Oh well.

I'm curious what was going through your mind when you thought calling the cops on your cousin was even remotely a good idea.

Honestly, I don't think it's a bad thing that you called. People like that more than likely just want attention. And if they're posting shit like that to get attention, and they're not actually planning on killing themselves... they probably need to learn a lesson, a lesson which a cop visit would probably solve pretty damn fast. If she's not in danger, which she's probably not, the cop will just talk to her real quick and peace out. If she is in danger, then she will get the help she needs. It was a bold move, but I don't think it was a legitimately bad decision. The fact is, when it's someone you care about, you just can't take chances when people say/do shit like that. You know it's probably nothing, but you just can't take chances. And because she's probably just trying to get attention, she shouldn't be rewarded for that (aka giving her sympathy, calling her on the phone, catering to her, etc...) that is rewarding her behavior, teaching her if she posts shit like that she can get sympathy and the attention that she wants. :shrug:

Could have maybe called her momma. That'd be just as worse. Let her momma call the cops or worse go over there.

This kinda swayed my opinion a little. I guess only time will tell if you did the right thing. It might actually be what she needed. I don't even know this girl. :shrug:

Okay guys. Cops showed up, and talked to her, and her mom.
It came down to..
"Yes, you need some help. But we feel you aren't suicidal"
they gave her numbers to call, and a counceling center.

:winning:

Turns out, it was a good move. Everyone got educated, and she wasn't mad, she was thankful

You know you shroomerites are just as biased as everyone eles.  You all have a us against them strategy.  You have to realize that there is a good reason for cops.  Imagine if he didn't call the cops and she really did kill herself how would he be able to live with him self.  Most cops are not power tripping assholes.  Those are just the ones you hear about on this web site.  I have had my bad experiences with cops,  but I have had way more with drug addicts.  Wake up and see the real world. You people are just like all of the other close minded people you bitch about all of the time. All you want to see is how great your drugs are and you totally ignore all of the negative.

Boo hoo. What is so difficult about your life? You have a warm bed, food, shelter, and access to the internet. That puts you better off than billions of people on Earth, most of whom are probably not killing themselves. Forgive me for being cold, but sometimes I am.

Eshu you did the right thing.
However honestly the cops are NOT what you want here - an ambulance is better.

I have been put in this situation many many times before. I called the ambulance many times. I waited overnights in the hospital with her, when she had no family or anything.

Then the one time I decided not to I never saw her again. Its one of the hardest things in the world to live with, and it never goes away. That was almost a year ago and I am still haunted by that call.

The best thing you can do its show her that you are there for her. Spend time and listen to her. Most of the time its just a call for attention.
But all it takes is one time for it not to be. I don't think people realize what its like till it happens.
